Bar\u00e7a’s list for the Champions League 25\/26: A surprise youth player and Ter Stegen enabled, but in doubt<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona<\/strong> registered its 23 players for the league phase of the UEFA Champions League<\/strong>, including a total of three goalkeepers, eight defenders, four midfielders and eight forwards. The main novelty is the inclusion of Roony Bardghji<\/strong> and Marc-Andr\u00e9 ter Stegen<\/strong>.<\/p>

The German appears with his usual number (‘1’),<\/strong> although he will be out for at least four months. With this, he could only return at the end of November or the beginning of December. However, the club is betting on his recovery until January 2026, when his future will again be in doubt with the opening of the winter market.<\/p>

‘Matts’ has run out of place in the squad after the signing of Joan Garc\u00eda<\/strong> and Wojciech Szczesny<\/strong>. In fact, his injury served to register the former Espanyol goalkeeper<\/a>, star signing of the summer for Bar\u00e7a in exchange for 25 million euros.<\/p>

The great bet of Bar\u00e7a? Roony Bardghji will play the Champions League<\/h2>

Bardghji, meanwhile, was also enabled for the Champions League once his registration with Bar\u00e7a Atl\u00e8tic was resolved<\/a>. As they did not have enough ‘Fair Play’, the club preferred to keep the Swede with a reserve team card to avoid problems with LaLiga. In Europe, he will wear the number ’28’, while in the preseason he used Lamine Yamal’s old number (’19’).<\/p>

Along with Roony appear, as forwards, Ferran Torres<\/strong>, Robert Lewandowski<\/strong>, Lamine Yamal<\/strong>, Raphinha<\/strong>, Marcus Rashford<\/strong> and Dani Olmo<\/strong>. The Terrassa player appears as an attacker in the official UEFA list<\/a>, while Marc Casad\u00f3<\/strong> is included among the team’s defenders.<\/p>

Therefore, only Gavi<\/strong>, Pedri<\/strong>, Frenkie de Jong<\/strong> and Marc Bernal<\/strong> are in the midfield position. The Berga player hopes to reappear in an official call-up against Valencia, while his debut in Europe could take place against Newcastle, on matchday 1.<\/p>
